Background: I work at OSU as a graduate teaching associate and lift at Ludus Magnus. I am a raw lifter who competes in the 105lb weight classes, and am currently prepping for my next meet (when grad school finally gives me a weekend off) . Currently, I am in the process of trying to accomplish my lofty lifting goals,survive graduate school, and teach undergraduates about what I really love, TRAINING..

Short on words and training, Big on thoughts

So this week, I got back news I was waiting on for WEEKS, months, heck you might even say a year (that was how long I kicked around the question and then went after the answer).

Oh and building and painting...I've been waking up at like 2am every morning with all these thoughts and painting a bunch of stuff in my house...Hmmm.Odd...
